I believe that. The movie was all atmosphere and no jump scares as I recall. The scene with Dallas on the walkway, with everyone knowing it was coming up on him but not how it was doing so was wonderfully chilling.

I agree it's a spook film. I was ~10 when I saw most of it. The scene where Lambert was collecting gear to evacuate and you see the alien slowly come up on her scared me so badly I turned it off. I've refused to watch it since just in case its not really that scary; I dont want to be disappointed.

For the past hour an owl has been hooting. If there is any sound more pathetic and depressing than an owl at night, I do not want to hear it.

I only just saw this (notifications don't seem to be working well lately). The growth on her arm is disgusting, but what's with that flap on her leg?

ICE is basically Anthony, and we'll all be expected to be glad it's a good life we have.

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

If you could dream the way it went from a gift to a poet to being owned by a crimelord, that could be a heck of a story in itself.

When he grabbed his rifle after destroying the MRI machine, he didn't notice he left the magazine on the floor.

LAPD officer lost rifle to MRI device during bungled raid, lawsuit alleges

Van Nuys medical imaging company alleges its constitutional rights were violated by officers who mistargeted the business for an illegal pot operation.

LAPD raided a diagnostic center claiming it was a grow house due to blacked out windows (patient privacy) and high electrical usage. The electricy powered the MRI, which they didn't know about before the raid.

An LAPD officer dangling a rifle in his right hand with an unsecured strap entered the MRI room, ignoring a magnetic field warning sign on the door that displayed photographs of prohibited metal objects such as scissors, screwdrivers, keys, watches, and credit cards, the suit states.

When the officer entered the room, the powerful magnets in the MRI machine attracted the loose rifle and secured it to the device.

That leg is much creepier than any of the weirdly fingered hands I've seen.

Abbott doesn't need to wait for others to do it - he's already announced his intention to invade Houston with the state police. The guy is seriously trying to out-Trump Trump.

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

In "Basket Case" Carl Hiaasen has a singer who became a media darling when people saw her pubic hairs during a music video. Good luck, guy.

That is just hideous. I will never understand the sort of people who can hear someone like him talk about revenge and threats and urge him to film things rather than ask if he's alright or tell someone he needs help.

@fortgeek.bsky.social I can't remember if you've mentioned that Rush is going on tour next year. Unfortunately, the closest they'll be to you is Ft. Worth, but it might be something to aim for if you need a reward.

All of the above, and I have friends who think I lie when I say I've never seen The Breakfast Club (which title I had to look up just now).

An image from a spooky, noir, Avant-garde horror film titled Where Are My Treats? It's an incredibly rare film that originally debuted in Paris around 1956. However, it was far too scary for viewers, so it's been buried since then.
